Pastor Tunde Bakare tips Oby Ezekwesili as alternative to Buhari

Pastor Tunde Bakare of the Latter Rain Assembly has described the presidential candidate of the Allied Congress Party of Nigeria, Mrs Oby Ezekwesili, as the best alternative to the incumbent President Muhammadu Buhari and Alhaji Atiku Abubakar.

The clergy stated that among the new crop of politicians trying to salvage Nigeria from the situation it is in, Oby Ezekwesili stands out.

“We have heard the incumbent ( President Buhari of the All Progressives Congress) insist that Nigeria ’ s current problems were created within the 16 years of the previous administrations and that , little by little , they are working to rewrite the narrative .

“On the other hand , we have heard the ‘ Atikulated’ side of the contest argue that the 16 years argument is now stale news. We have seen former Vice -President Atiku Abubakar and his running mate , Peter Obi , of the Peoples Democratic Party downplay the achievements of the current government .

“We have read the so -called ‘ Atiku Plan, ’ spanning a competitive and open economic system , public institution reform , reduction of infrastructure deficit, economic diversification , and human capital development . We have also heard Atiku Abubakar ’ s promise to restructure the polity with a focus on devolution of powers . ”

He added , “We have seen a new generation challenging the old order and insisting that Nigerians do not have to choose between six and half a dozen .
“We have seen Kingsley Moghalu of the Young Progressives Party project his experience in economic management at national and international levels as he promises better economic management and a geo-economic restructuring of Nigeria .

“Meanwhile , Fela Durotoye of the Alliance for New Nigeria has eloquently promised a new Nigeria where the cost of living is reduced , power , security and health care are guaranteed , jobs are created , and law and order are maintained. ”

Tunde Bakare went further by acknowledging the performance of Omoyele Sowore , saying, “We have seen the likes of Omoyele Sowore of the African Action Congress criss-cross the nation , mobilising the young , especially students , in his drive to take our country back.

“However , of the new breed seeking to disrupt the political space , none gives me as much hope for the near future as does my sister , Obiageli ‘ Oby ’ Ezekwesili , of the Allied Congress Party of Nigeria . ”

“I salute her for jumping into the fray despite her seemingly limited chances and as I have said to her in times past , come what may , one day , and that day will come soon, we will fix this nation . One thing is very clear in my mind : with her candidacy , no Nigerian can reasonably say after the election that there was no credible alternative to the status quo in 2019. ”
